USS Sanctuary

USS Sanctuary

Description:

The last Enterprise class warship to be created by the human empire. It is the primary defensive option for the entire civilian fleet. So far she has proven to be a reliable and hardy ship and stalwart in battle. I think a spacefarer from the past said it the best.

Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: But it ain’t all buttons and charts, little albatross. You know what the first rule of flying is? Well, I suppose you do, since you already know what I’m about to say.
River Tam: I do. But I like to hear you say it.
Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: Love. You can learn all the math in the ‘Verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don’t love, she’ll shake you off just as sure as a turn of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells you she’s hurtin’ before she keels. Makes her a home.

The largest and latest warship produced by humanity. It represtents the pinnical of current Colonial technology. It was supposed to be the ship that can do anything. Four were created and a fifth was under a shake down cruise when the attack occured. The ship has a massive weapons and troop complement and is capable of both long range unsupported assault missions. They were the flagships of the fleet. No known current survivors aside from the Sanctuary are known to exist.
